coreSTORE - Purchasing: How To: Place a Distributor Purchase Order on coreSTORE and Receive Against It
Please Note: You must be using coreSTORE and coreFORCE in order to use this feature.
First, you will need to have your distributors set up on coreFORCE.
Now that your distributors are setup on coreFORCE you will need to assign the Supplier in coreSTORE to the correct Vendor ID in coreFORCE. Click on the Suppliers module under Purchasing > Suppliers on the left side navigation menu.

You can click the edit button on the supplier you are looking for.

Or you can add a new supplier if it hasn't already been added to your coreSTORE.
Once the supplier has been added / edited go to Purchasing > PO & Receiving. Next to the search bar at the top click the colored area to the right of the search bar to chose Purchase Order.

Add the supplier to the Purchase Order.

Add the items to the Purchase Order by using the search bar.

Be sure to chose the Supplier Terms, the PO date, and any other information that you may want to add like the Invoice number and a requested ship date.

Once all the information is entered and all the products added all you have to do is press the Transmit PO button and you are done!

You can confirm your PO transmission by logging into your coreFORCE admin, navigating to the Distributor Order Maintenance. You should now see a list of the Distributor orders that have been transmitted to the your distributors.
